Regular Meeting, City Commission, Nov. 10, 1986 Page 4 86-87-3 Meetings were held, the issues were resolved, however they did say the City was a bit out of compliance with the levels of treatment to the disposal on the golf course. Nothing more was said; the City then received a copy of the consent order and that they were going to fine us $1,000.00. The City renegotiated over the money and they lowered the figure to $500.00. The letter has gone out telling them they should not charge the City the $500.00 based on the fact that the rules that we were operating under, we were not in violation, primarily because there was a permit that was issued with no access criteria which was not even in effect back in 1980 which was transferred over to the City when we took over the plant, and these rules are not retroactive unless specifically stated in a rule.
